Club Calf Special...It's BACK!

In the early days of RHD, we offered a service called the "Club Calf Special" which was basically a package deal that included everything a club calf breeder would need to start a successful marketing campaign. Breeders like Graves Cattle in Missouri, Abney Family Cattle in Wisconsin, Riley Farms in Missour, and many many more used the club calf special to take advantage of this to step up their marketing program efforts.

With the club calf sale season and State Fairs just around the corner, we're bringing back the "CLUB CALF SPECIAL" option for our cattle clients. And well, actually, this would work for any livestock client, not just cattle.

The Club Calf Special is priced at $1,000. Here is what you get:

  • Logo design for your operation
  • 1 page web site for one full year, including your own domain name, hosting, unlimited photos and unlimited text and photo updates.
  • 1 page ad design that can be used anytime within the year...most people will use it in August for their sale.
  • 250 business cards designed, printed and shipped to you. Use these to hand out at your sale and throughout the rest of the year.
That is the basic package. For those who might need a 2 page ad design, or maybe a web site with 3 pages (home, cattle for sale, winners), you can still take advantage of the basic pricing and just upgrade on these options at the normal price.

So maybe you've been a fan of RHD for years, but never thought you could afford to hire us. Here is the package deal for you! If this sounds good to you, book our Club Calf Special now! Call us at 979-532-9141 or e-mail tricia@ranchhousedesigns.com and let's get started on it!

RB2 Showpigs

Many people experience an empty nest syndrome once they have their children out of the house. For Bobby Balser, owner of RB2 Showpigs, his syndrome was of the swine variety.


“In 2000, both of my children had graduated from high school and gone off to college,” he said. “The hog barn was empty, leaving me with an empty barn syndrome.”

So he decided to start raising a few show pigs. Now 10 years later, they have enjoyed great success and their hog breeding operation has grown. Bobby and wife Debbie handle the daily operations on the farm, and rely on their children for boar research and selection, as well as the health and nutrition aspects.

Check out their web site, RB2 Showpigs, to see the breeding stock they have available and their recent winners. They have sales scheduled throughout the fall, so be sure and check their site for dates and locations.

Bobby is always happy to meet with customers at the barn, but he recommends you call ahead. In addition to his swine operation, he also owns an automotive business in Kerrville.

The Best Affiliate Home Based Business Revenue Stream

I am frequently asked about which is the best affiliate online business. That's an easy one. The best such home based business is one that has the following:
1. Built from the ground up by the owner: Like any business on the street, internet businesses have ups and downs. Unless you understand how the internet works, you will never be able to tell how well you and your business are doing. If you buy some custom made turn key site or one that's been languishing on the net for a while, you haven't learned anything. You will be at the mercy of the "experts" who have no gut feeling for what is happening to your baby.
Learn about internet business, then build your own site with Pay Per Click, organic or SEO'd article generated traffic
2. Site flexibility: Whatever software that was used to build and host the site should allow lots of room for easy changes to be made. The internet is always changing, sometimes in big ways. Not long ago, you had to go a while before you'd see a video. Now, it is hard to find a site that hasn't got at least one.
What is the next big change? Will the site software accept it or destine you as the site owner and the site itself to eventual oblivion?
3. Multiple lines of revenue: For the same reason as given above, you want your site to compensate for change by developing and harvesting multiple sources of income. Maybe you will develop a series of ebooks, online courses, mp3 downloadable audios and so forth. Whatever new comes up, the best affiliate sites will be able to keep up.
Can you see where it is not really the theme of the site or you the owner that will make for the best affiliate based home business? It is in the very nature of the code itself.
By the way, if you want to learn about how to do business on the internet and to get a good idea of what you can achieve for yourself online from home, check out the short video at www.homejobsite.org.
